A rack gauge, or cooking grate thermometer, is a useful tool for measuring the temperature of your cooking surface on a grill or smoker. Overall, using a rack gauge can help you cook better, more consistent food on your grill or smoker, which can lead to more delicious meals for you and your guests.

Here are a few reasons why you might want to consider using one:

  • Accurate temperature control: With a rack gauge, you can more accurately control the temperature of your cooking surface. This is especially important when grilling or smoking delicate foods that require precise cooking temperatures, such as fish or vegetables.
  • Even cooking: By monitoring the temperature of your cooking surface, you can ensure that your food is cooking evenly. This is important for getting a consistent cook on all sides of your food and preventing overcooked or undercooked spots.
  • Better timing: A rack gauge can help you time your cooking more effectively. For example, if you know your grill takes a certain amount of time to preheat to a certain temperature, you can plan your cooking time accordingly.
  • More control over the cooking process: By knowing the temperature of your cooking surface, you can adjust the heat as needed to achieve the desired level of doneness. This can give you more control over the cooking process and help you avoid overcooking or undercooking your food.
